Note

The source document and target document must follow the same
standard (for example, “PDF_None!”). Otherwise, the imported PDF
will show as blank pages.
After importing a PDF document with form fields (such as
checkbox, combobox, listbox, radiobutton, signature, and
textfield) into a target document, it is not possible to import
another PDF document that also contains form fields. The function
will throw an error.

Examples

oannotsPwd.pdf”

lpdf_page = create PDFpage
lpdf_doc = create PDFdocument

lpdf_page.importcontent( "D:import
oannotsPwd.pdf", 2, 10, 10, 500, 500)

lpdf_doc.addpage(lpdf_page)
lpdf_doc.save("D:saveimportcontent.pdf")
